########## conf/cassandra.yaml: ########## @@ -1757,6 +1757,12 @@ drop_compact_storage_enabled: false # Guardrail to allow/disallow user-provided timestamps. Defaults to true. # user_timestamps_enabled: true # +# Guardrail to bound user-provided timestamps within a given range. Default is infinite (denoted by 0) Review Comment: I think the convention for disables duration, sizes, etc. is that the disabled value is `null` instead of zero. Note also that, even if we were considering zero as the disabled value, the following config will wrongly fail validation: ```java guardrails().setMaximumTimestampFailThreshold(0); guardrails().setMaximumTimestampWarnThreshold(1); ``` That would fail because 0 is not consistently considered as the disabled value. I think we should use `null` as the disabled value for the `DurationSpec` properties. The `int` values in seconds that we use on the JMX methods can instead use `-1` as their disabled value. More or less [this way](https://github.com/adelapena/cassandra/commit/9b41030a609e4b1ef0ec23a04f339ea4dc021fce). -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
